Sorry for the blogging-hiatus. I always tell myself I'm going to keep up with posts on this blog - but then the icky, Wisconsin--winter-weather gets the best of me and steals my motivation. But I thought I'd pop in and show you what I've been up to.
Aside from my occasional participation in the 'develop on fridays' group (seen in previous posts), I've started taking part in other little photo groups/projects as well. These photos are for me. Things, objects, mostly still-life, some self-portraits... but really just for my own enjoyment and growth.
A good friend of mine, Rachel, started a group on Flickr. It's a weekly challenge based on one word and our interpretations. The first week was "sugar" - here's my collection (notice the good and bad sugar): :)
This past week was "light". I tried a few self-portraits (something I'm actually missing a little bit since finishing my 365 project!)..
If you look in the bottom left corner of the "light" series, you can see a bit of my "baby bump"! Most of you know this I'm sure, but I am now 21 weeks pregnant with our first child.... these self-portraits were taken just a few hours before finding out we are having a boy! :)
Another short-term project I took part in was "for the love of color" (also on
Flickr). Each day was a different color...
Here is my shot for "orange" day:
I'll try to share a few more of my personal, "for me" photos more often!
(btw, sorry for the smaller-than-usual photos... I forgot to size them accordingly when I published to flickr...and was too lazy to resize) ;)
